The Great Indian Kapil Show Episode 2
Director: Anukalp Goswami
Cast: Kapil Sharma, Archana Puran Singh, Sunil Grover, Krushna Abhishek, Kiku Sharda, Rajiv Thakur, with special guests Rohit Sharma and Shreyas Iyer featured in Episode 2
The Great Indian Kapil Show – Season 1, Episode 2 (2024) brings cricketing charm to Kapil Sharma’s comedy stage in #CelebrityTalkComedy mode. With the IPL vibe in full swing, the spotlight turns to India’s cricket captains Rohit Sharma and Shreyas Iyer. Kapil and his team playfully toast “sixes” with slapstick swing attempts and witty banter, casting the athletes as live “Men of the Match”—but this time on a talk show rather than the pitch. Rotten Tomatoes
Tensions surface when the humor veers toward adult skits. Critics described the cross-dressing and edgy jokes as cringe-worthy, with both Rohit and Shreyas reportedly looking uncomfortable at times. Sunil Grover attempts to salvage the act with an over-the-top character sketch as “Engineer Chumbak,” injecting a burst of theatrical energy that brings moments of relief. Kapil himself works hard to steer the episode back on track, but some audience reviews suggest the humor wobbles under repetitive punchlines and uninspired double entendres. KoimoiLeisurebyte
Nevertheless, there are glimpses of genuine rapport—light-hearted sports anecdotes, friendly digs, and the cricket stars’ willingness to let their guard down offer warmth amid the misfires. The studio atmosphere, guided by Kapil’s familiar warmth and the dynamic ensemble, keeps the episode watchable—if uneven.
In essence, Episode 2 hits memorable highs with its guest presence and affectionate camaraderie, yet occasionally falters when the comedic edge becomes too sharp or stale.
